AutoExec Summary
The final limited-edition VW Golf GTI TCR marks the end of the seventh-generation model before the new one arrives. It offers impressive power delivery, taut handling, and a premium interior. Downsides include a high price close to the Golf R, tyre noise on rough roads, and firm suspension. Priced at $51,490 plus on-road costs, it’s limited to 300 units in Australia. The TCR features a 213kW turbo 2.0-litre engine, six-speed DSG auto, and enhanced chassis and suspension for a balanced ride. It’s a fitting finale to a great generation of the world’s best-selling hot hatch.
Brands mentioned: Volkswagen, Audi, Honda, Ford, Porsche.
